Convextion – Torc

Synchrophone proudly present the latest Gerard Hanson aka. Convextion release; a head-turner moment, since the last proper EP by the 2845 artist was over seven years ago, with Vectorvision for the EP ‘Zy Clone’. Since then, Convextion has been hard at work, eschewing all concavities for a purely thermal, fluid sonic exercise. ‘Torc’ and ‘Andas’ are unsettling, looming techno visions, confecting a hypothetical world in which the hard sciences have taken total precedent over the human, resulting in a rapid dissipation of heat. The only energy that remains is that which is fed through the machine, as further evidenced on the sinister murk-movements on ERP’s version, its two-tone Reese stab suggesting utter indefatigability when begged for mercy.
